Any Experience with Crown Point Cabinetry?

madmadscientist | Posted in General Discussion on April 20, 2012 10:11am

Looking at Crown Point Cabinetry as a possible source of custom cabinets for our new kitchen.

http://www.crown-point.com/

This is the place that advertises in just about every home magizine that I read.

They claim to be super high furniture quality stuff….

Has anybody here actually installed these cabinets or have any actual experience with them?

Are they as good as their ads claim?

I sent them our latest design and they are working on a free estimate for me…

They charge 2% of the cabinet costs to do a real full design.

thanks,

    crown piont cabinets

    I have been working with Crown Piont for over ten years in  the northeast and I'm extremely satisfied with the whole operation.

    the design and drawings are one of their best features, since the lead time for cabinets could be weeks away we depend on these drawings during the construction phase of the project.  The cabinets themselves are high quality ,the 1" doors and drawer fronts only add to the overall feel of furniture grade cabinets,almost completely eliminating warpage . The service end of the company is also invaluable to us,if a cabinet is damageded or needs to be redesigned the turn around time is about  two weeks.

    I been in the industry for thirty years and dealt with a hundred different cabinet companies, they by far have been the easiest And most professional of them all, I highly recommend them.

      Sooo

      Do you feel that they are actually of a fine furniture quality.

      I have not gotten my quote back from yet and I'd basically like to know if they are in fact as good as they say quality wise.

      Do you feel that they are worth the money?

      Thanks,
